I’m starting up guitar lessons again today, after a few months’ hiatus. I wasn’t sure what I had in mind when I started playing other than “this instrument has more immediate utility than the french horn,” so I’m not too bothered with what level of progress I’ve made or not. It’s a deep instrument, and I’m really enjoying the process of getting to know it; a process made much better with a teacher.

This year my hope is to play with other human beings, and as a stretch, play at a concert of some sort.
